REDCURRANT FILO BASKETS - Filo pastry is crisp and light and makes a very elegant dessert for this festive season!
Serves 4
INGREDIENTS:
3 sheets filo pastry
1 cup Redcurrants (some for garnishing too)
1 tbsp sunflower oil
1 cup low fat Greek yogurt
1 tsp icing sugar for garnishing
You can have extra icing sugar to mix with Greek yogurt if you desire!
METHOD:
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
Cut the filo pastry into approx 10cm squares
Brush each filo square with oil and arrange in a patty tray, place 3 sheets in different angles to form star shaped baskets as above photos.
Bake for 6-8 minutes until golden and crisp, filo pastry does cook very quickly so keep checking the oven. Leave to cool before filling.
In a bowl add the Greek yogurt (icing sugar if you want it a little sweet as per your taste) then stir in the redcurrants.
Spoon the Greek yogurt mixture into the cool filo baskets. Arrange on a serving plate individual or in a platter. Garnish each basket with redcurrants and icing sugar.
